: My neighbor's son has tourettes syndrome. We've heard that the Cleveland Clinic is the best around for the treatment of the disorder. What can you tell me about your program?
==============================================================================================
Yes, you have heard correctly. The pediatric neurology program at the clinic have a number of neurologist with special interests. Dr. Gerald Erenberg is the specialist in Tourette syndrome. I have worked with Dr Erenberg and really enjoy his approach and style with children. The best way to set up an appointment is to call 216-444-5559 or 1-800-223-2273 ext. 45559 to arrange an appointment. There may be a wait for a new evaluation. After the evaluation, information is generally given to the parents. There is also an Ohio chapter run by Linda Jordan 1-800-543-2675 or the National Tourette syndrome Association, Inc. 1-800-237-0717. Please let us know if we may be of more assistance.
